on 8/6/2007 My name is Samson and I live in South Africa. I am an avid Sega fan and I'm still mad at their sad exit into the software market. anyway I really am interested in buying games online as I own a dreamcast and i only have the matt hoffman thing. anyway I just wanted some advice on how to go about getting these killa games from the Net. So far I do not think theres any retailers of dreamcast games in South Africa and frankly it makes me sick cause I still think the console is as good as any of these crappy things like the ps3 or what not. I still am hunting for a genesis also but my main concern now is how to get these games from the U.S to me as I know its kinda dangerous giving out your bank details and stuff on the net. So please advice accordingly and asap. MY email address is sam8sad@yahoo.com.
